Libido: boost it naturally

Hormonal imbalance, lack of self-confidence, stress, fatigue, routine... a drop in libido can have multiple causes in both women and men. But that's no reason to run out and buy flibanserin, the female Viagra. There are natural ways to take care of your desire and make it regain color! Follow the leader.

The basis: self-love

Well-ordered charity begins with oneself. To desire the other, you must first desire yourself. But what are you singing to me there? Nothing crazy. When you don't think you're pretty, or not likeable, it's difficult to project a good self-image and give off the right signals. So you have to start by pampering yourself. Remember our qualities, our assets, do ourselves good, get back into sport or review our wardrobe, change our hairstyle, breathe nature, listen to stimulating music, savor every bite of what we eat. No matter the way. Taste the little pleasures of life and smile at the world. Then, the desire of one will fuel that of the other: it’s a virtuous circle!

Then, gain in lightness

Compensating for sexual frustration with food is a very common reflex. But when we eat too much, too fat or too heavy, we quickly find ourselves stuck to the couch without energy. Libido at half mast. To boost it, you must therefore ban foods that are too rich in fat for a while because they reduce testosterone production. However, the latter plays a role in desire, and not only male desire. In duo with estrogens, this hormone does indeed have power over ours. So favor foods full of energy and protein (fruits, dried fruits, red meat, fish, etc.) and don't forget seafood from time to time: oysters are full of zinc, a trace element. which stimulates testosterone and dopamine, and therefore, libido.

Move move!

A low libido can occur when you are stressed or depressed. And against stress and depression, sport has no equal. It stimulates the production of endorphins and serotonin, the hormones of happiness… and desire! So even if it costs you to get started, go out running, dancing, cycling several times a week. After work for example to relieve pressure. Or during your menstruation, because sport relieves painful periods , especially yoga . Don't think too much, put on your period panties and go!

…and strengthen your perineum

Being fully aware of your genitals is as important as knowing your menstrual cycle. It makes us feel more like a woman! Besides, why not try yoni eggs ?

Focus on ylang-ylang

When it comes to aphrodisiacs, ylang-ylang no longer needs to prove itself. This small yellow flower native to Indonesia exudes a sweet and relaxing but also exciting scent. As an essential oil, it stimulates the female libido. Add a few drops to a vegetable oil (jojoba, sweet almond, coconut, etc.) and massage your wrists for a few minutes with this mixture. If you are a couple, offer your partner a massage with this oil which should transport you to the land of 1001 nights.

A pinch of ginseng in my life

Other plants, roots, spices can spice up our sex life and give us a boost. This is the case of ginseng, which can be taken as a cure in capsule form, of maca, a plant from Peru that increases sexual appetite, but also of dark chocolate . It would be wrong to deprive ourselves!
